The major ingredient in this food is potato. Both potato starch and potato protein are sourced from potato juice (by products of potato processing).

There is very little meat content in this food. Venison is third on the list, but this ingredient is inclusive of water content. Once removed, as it must be to produce a dry product, this ingredient will weigh around 20% of its wet weight and as such is probably more accurately placed further down the ingredient list. It is thus unlikely that this food contains any substantive meat content at all. The only true meat ingredient, in meal form, is venison meal at 11th on the list. This is far too far down the ingredients to make any substantive contribution to the overall meat content of the food.

Soy is a further ingredient of concern. It is a very common cause of allergy problems. Powdered cellulose is filler, also known as sawdust (but there's more sawdust than meat content).

We note that this product uses ethoxyquin as a preservative. Ethoxyquin is a chemical banned from use in human foods, due to the belief that it is carcinogenic.

This is a prescription food and not intended for long term use. However, we note that there are similar products available without prescription that offer a far higher meat content and the use of better quality ingredient. The nutrient content of this food is below the minimum allowable for adult maintenance (per AAFCO)
